        It wasn't a BB gun until the police had it in their hands and confirmed yes it was a BB gun. Up to that point it's a full powered gun.

        I completely understand he was a child. However a firearm is the "Great Equalizer". Size, age and strength no longer matter when ur armed

        Nothing matters when the child is black. We shouldn't have firearms. Children shouldn't play with toys like these either.

        Should at the least be charged with excessive-force, stripped of badge. Not be allowed to just walk-away. So Sad.

        "The obsession with guns" is the key statement. White or black, who can distinguish the difference when that gun was pulled from a waistband

        It's easy to take a side here, but if that's the gun, it looks very much like a real one. Just trying to be fair here.

        If race played a part, then shame on the officer, but things aren't always that clear cut.
